Hovering in the shadows comes Apse’s Spirit, a mesmerizing album where the shrouded world of Gothic gloom meets the outer stratosphere of space rock. However one chooses to interpret the set, its mood and music casts an unbreakable spell, leaving the listener haunted by the images evoked and the atmospheres conjured up.
Jo-Ann Greene, All Music Guide
Legions [7:01]

Classic hard rock swagger, metronomic krautrock pulses, vintage jam band noodling, pungent psych-rock bombardments, foliage-fuelled bucolic folk, with plenty of ambient breathing space for the instruments and a touch of Tinariwen-championed ancient Saharan blues to add a non-Western twang to the unfailingly melodic proceedings, the album’s main ingredients have put in way too much active duty in the last 30-odd years to become outdated anytime soon, thus sparing Grails from the rapidly ageing effects of trendiness.

Glasgow guitar rock force Aereogramme are a surprisingly pleasing and interesting act whose supernatural dynamic techniques level most of their competition. Drifting out of thick sonic wanderings and spacy keyboard sounds into heavily distorted and explosive crescendos, the group is at times as powerful as the emotionally expansive early days of Sunny Day Real Estate.
Song: Motion [6:20]
